Of Blonde, het nieuwe album van R&B-sensatie Frank Ocean, de moeite waard is, laten we aan de kenners over. Wij zijn echter onder de indruk van het filmlijstje dat de man publiceerde in het bijhorende magazine Boys Don’t Cry.

Van Wong Kar-Wai over Kenneth Anger tot Werner Herzog, van The Seventh Seal over The Holy Mountain tot Orpheus: Ocean gaat uitdagend materiaal duidelijk niet uit de weg.
